@arzachel all true Scotsmen wear kilts.
@Feddylain You seem to be (very loosely) invoking the “no true Scotsman” fallacy.
Could you spool out a little on why that applies here? Sorry, a bit puzzled by your response.
@arzachel no, I'm invoking it full stop.
@Feddylain usually it involves the phrase “no true Scotsman”, but ok.
And how do you believe it applies here?
@arzachel the meme is attempting to rationalize that the pandemic is fake because some people are saying that the pandemic is fake, but many things that are real are argued to be fake.
As an example, let's turn that meme on its head:
Fact check: if the pandemic were fake, there wouldn't be people arguing that it's real.

@Feddylain No, the meme is pointing out that in the event of an actual pandemic— before the definition shifted to “casedemic”, or “the flu”— no one would be arguing it isn’t real. It would be universally self-evident, as in the bubonic plague.
But I can tell from your timeline that you’re a dedicated Branch Covidian, & thus impervious to any form of reason which goes against your faith.
Your opinion of 'self evident' is based off of Hollywood zombie movies. People don't go screaming and wailing like parishioners at Armageddon and running to the hills during real life pandemics. Go read up on the 1950s polio epidemics. Real epidemics look just like this one. Businesses being closed down. Children staying home from school. People wearing PPE in public. Companies researching vaccines. Mass vaccinations. And a small fringe of retards thinking that this reality is a conspiracy of some sort.

I don't get this joke. The davidians were peaceful people genocides by the US government in one of the biggest fuck ups in American history. Shouldn't you be comparing me to Jones town or some shit? I'd compare you to Jones town. Fucking lunatic going to commit mass suicide with your antivaxxer retardation.
